HootSuite introduces RSS feeds
February 2nd, 2009
Could it be time to say goodbye to Twitterfeed? HootSuite can now send an automatic ‘New Blog Post’ tweet, with your blogs link attached. Add as many RSS feeds as you like, and send ‘em out over multiple Twitter profiles at once. Each tweet from your RSS feed gets its own ow.ly URL, so you can track click-throughs on every new blog post you tweet about. Best part of all? It’s super simple use. How cool is that?
Here’s a quick YouTube video on using HootSuite as your RSS feed:

Please add comprehensive stats (á la bit.ly) on each ow.ly link sortable by each acct, and also a one-stop page for all ow.ly links/clickthru’s at a glance and you will see many people move from bit.ly, tr.im, etc…

I set up the RSS just like the video shows, but my blog posts aren’t showing up in Twitter. Is there a FAQ for this function, and/or can anyone help? Thanks!

Do all RSS feeds work in this? I’m testing it out and haven’t got one tweet about it?!
Continue testing with other RSS feeds, but so far, it’s not working.
Suggestions?

Hey Khayyam, some users have reported problems with RSS feed and the issue has since been resolved. Your RSS tweets should be rolling out now. Thanks for your comment

I am having trouble with the RSS as well. No tweets coming out of what appear to be properly set up RSS feeds. What gives?

Hello,
I’ve added a couple of RSS feeds but they don’t seem to be working? Any thoughts?

I’m having the same problem still.

Love this feature. I’m surprised it isn’t more frequently implemented as part of a blogging toolkit.

It’s true. I have stopped using TwitterFeed now and I am using Hootsuite exclusively. In fact I love it so much, I even bought the iPhone App (I don’t normally buy apps).
I made a tutorial of how to link the RSS feed to my blog and show screenshots of how the feed gets posted on all my social sites using the Ping.FM integration.
